Earlier this month, she told a crowd at a performance she believes many Australians do not to like her.

But it appears as if Jessie J isn't too bothered with the supposed animosity as, according to news.com.au, the British pop star is set to return as a judge The Voice Australia next year.

While a Nine spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia the negotiations with the coaches were ongoing, and an official announcement would only be made when all contracts were finalised, news.com.au is reporting Jessie J to be confirmed on the panel.

Back in the red seat? Jessie J is reportedly returning as a judge on The Voice Australia next season, according to a news.com.au story published on Monday

The 27-year-old, who recently travelled to Sydney for an intimate performance for Microsoft brand, was reportedly also in town to engage in contract negotiations.

Performing at Sydney's State Theatre on a Thursday night, the newly peroxide-blonde addressed the crowd between songs with some very direct statements.

'I'm very aware that there is a lot of people in Australia that don't like me and that's OK,' she said.

The London-born star also jokingly told them: 'You hated me on The Voice and now your girlfriend's got you here and you hate me now.'

'Thank you to all my friends and family and of course Jessie J for supporting me through this and always seeing the best in me,' the 16-year-old Central Coast resident told the crowd after the announcement.

Following the show's finale in August, Jessie J spoke with news.com.au about a possible return to the show in the 2016 season.
